TORONTO, July 21 (UPI) -- Rookie Jorge Sosa recorded his first major league win and Steve Cox drove in a pair of runs as the Tampa Bay Devil Rays snapped their 13-game road losing streak Sunday with a 7-5 win over the Toronto Blue Jays.
The Devil Rays' road losing streak marked the longest in the American League since Kansas City had a similar skid from June 23-July 18, 1997.
Making his fifth career start, Sosa (1-2) yielded three runs and six hits in six innings. He struck out five and walked two.
Cox delivered a sacrifice fly in the first inning and singled home a run in the third as the Devil Rays halted their seven-game slide overall.
Jason Conti went deep off in the fourth as Tampa Bay avoided a three-game sweep.
Toronto's Chris Woodward and rookie Eric Hinske hit solo shots for Toronto.
Rookies Tom Wilson and Dewayne Wise each drove in a run in the eighth as the Blue Jays pulled within 6-5. But Toronto failed to sweep consecutive series for the first time this season.
